THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Acclaimed indie-rock duo The Raveonettes are set to take their hypnotic, dream pop sound to new heights on their latest album Sing… This album is a remarkable collection of inspired covers, showcasing the band’s unique interpretations of classics by The Shangri-Las, The Cramps, Buddy Holly, The Shirelles, The Velvet Underground and many more!
Fans have already been treated to two songs from the album: The band’s surprisingly lush cover of the beloved Gram Parsons alt-country masterpiece Return Of The Grievous Angel, and the sweetly lilting Every Brothers ballad All I Have To Do Is Dream. Drenched in reverb with brittle, chiming guitars and a floor tom-heavy drum groove that’ll wake the neighbors, The Raveonettes turn the Everlys sweet soda-fountain ’50s bop into a modern shoegaze epic with a breadth and depth that you have to hear to believe.
Guitarist and vocalist Sune Rose Wagner says, “Sharin and I used to perform songs by The Everly Brothers before we changed our name to The Raveonettes, so our love for this band goes way back. You won’t find a more dreamy song than All I Have To Do Is Dream. It’s the perfect lullaby in my book. We loved recording our version and hope people will rediscover such a timeless classic.”
The Raveonettes, consisting of Wagner and Sharin Foo, have carved out a unique niche in the indie-rock scene with their signature blend of dark, moody soundscapes and melodic pop sensibilities. With Sing…, they push their creative boundaries even further, breathing new life into timeless tracks while preserving the essence that made them iconic.”
